The only good news about this happening is now he most likely won't be asked for in any trade scenarios leading up to the deadline. Typically when GM's discuss trades a teams best assets are the one's that GM's will ask for in return, if they are giving up any piece that could help the opposing team for a stretch run. At least now the best asset we could potentially give up would be Melo/Bradley.

Totally my thinking but, perhaps DA knew that Sully would need surgery either in the off-season or at some point in his early career after drafting him and decided to force Sully to have the surgery now to eliminate his name from trade converstions leading up to the deadline? This would be the type of decision that would be made behind closed doors that likely the media/public would never know about that could potentially help us to continue to try to contend for this year without hurting our rebuilding assets for the future?

How is this good news, yall delusional fans are too attached to these players, Sully is good hes not that great and now hes already having back problems, it took KG and Ray Allen for us to ever win a ship and compete year in year out, yet yall dont want to part with Avery or Sully when neither will ever be near the level KG and Ray were, but if it took Sully or Avery to be part of a deal to bring in a guy that is that level yall wouldnt make the deal? let me guess yall were mad when we traded Al Jefferson and Gerald Green away for KG, there were those types back then and i'm sure some of yall were angry at that trade, this team is going no where fast, there is no bright future with this team at the moment, there no where near good enough to compete for a ship and but there not bad enough to get a lottery pick to build around, and they put the team on Rondos back and he shouldnt be that guy, your in good shape when Rondo is your 3rd best player, i'm not taking nothing away from him but was it not KG who put the team on his back last year sometime around the time he moved to center? Thats who our best player is not Rondo, none of the top free agents are going to come here and DA already ****ed up with Green/Terry and even Pierce is overpaid right now, DA ****ed up in a lot of different ways, nothing is going as planned and we're not set up to make a splash right now through trade or draft, lets make the playoffs this year and enjoy it because its going to be a long time coming before we see it again, and if DA was serious about trading old vets if he had the chance then its probably in his best interest to do it this deadline and let the rebuild process start

if we're lucky maybe somebody would be willing to trade for Rondo on draft day, Rondo for Grevis Vasquez/Robin Lopez and there lottery pick would be ideal, but of course yall would cry over a deal like that, and i'll take back Perk and that lottery pick for KG, possibly get one of those young players (Lamb/PJ3/Maynor) and they can have whatever the **** else, now we will have some nice picks this year, and we will probably be bad enough to get another lottery pick next year when the draft will be loaded

Bass back to starting? Time to blow it the **** up boys. Start Bradley, Lee, Pierce, Green, KG. Trade Terry, Bass, Barbosa, Wilcox, Collins. Bring Melo into the rotation. I would have said get Kris Joseph some run, but they cut him to free up a roster spot to do absolutely nothing with.

I hope Joseph is laughing in some hotel in Europe right now... There was no reason to waive him... At this point in the season a 2nd unit of Green at the 4 and Joseph at the 3 would have been nice to watch... Someone dropped the ball with that waivey move...

It sucks to be right this time.

I will attest that you've posted his soon to happen back issue's... I'm playing 2-1-13 tonight...

IMO he wants no part of this team... If he were smart he'd take any calls with Oklahoma area codes...

Watch him put together one of his better 2nd halves of his career...

Too bad they can't inject him with some hops while he's under the knife...
